Usage Guidance

Rate. Type is used to represent the numerical quotient resulting from a comparison of two independent things such as a quantity meas- ured with respect to another measured quantity such as a rate of speed, a measure of a part with respect to a whole - a proportion such as the mortality rate, a tax rate, the cost per unit of a commodity or service or a charge or payment calculated in relation to a particular sum or quantity such as interest rates. The quotient is calculated by taking into account the Rate. Multiplier. Value and Rate. Base Multiplier. Val- ue supplementary components that affect the unit codes used at the numerator and the denominator. For example, if a unit of measure was expressed as hour, when what was needed was 1/1000 of an hour, the multiplier value would be .001. Conversely, if a unit of meas- ure was expressed as hour, when what was needed was hundreds of hours; the multiplier value would be 100. The input of positive and negative numbers is possible. A minus sign (-) must precede a negative number. A plus sign (+) may precede a positive number.

Rate. Type should not be confused with Percentage Type for percentages, Ratio. Type for ratios, or Measure. Type for measures – de- pending on how the measure was obtained and what is the intended use. However, it is acceptable to use Rate. Type for cases where the business requirements cannot be restricted to these sub-cases and require the flexibility of Rate. Type. For example Interest. Rate may, depending on the business context be expressed in percent such as per thousand or per million.
